Project and issuer profile, and regulatory warnings
This page documents the publicly available corporate information on the entity named as the issuer of $HYPER, together with the warnings published by the competent European authorities. The information is set out factually, with references to primary sources; it is neither a classification of the project nor an investment recommendation. It is published so that readers can form an informed view.

1. The entity named as issuer: Sentinum Ltd.
Corporate details
The Bitcoin Hyper whitepaper, dated 4 May 2025 (current version 4 January 2026), was published by Sentinum Ltd. — a company registered in the British Virgin Islands, registration number 2182846, registered office Quijano Chambers, P.O. Box 3159, Road Town, Tortola, Virgin Islands (British), managing director Agus Prabowo Saputra, contact: Contact@bitcoinhyper.com. The information is reproduced as it appears in the project's own material; it has not been independently verified against an official company register.
Registered agent
The address “Quijano Chambers, P.O. Box 3159” corresponds to the offices of Quijano & Associates (BVI) Limited — a professional offshore corporate services firm. The same address also appears in the Panama Papers and Paradise Papers datasets published by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (the ICIJ Offshore Leaks Database), and is the registered address of a large number of offshore entities registered through the same agent. This is a professional registered agent, providing a registered address to a great many companies; its presence is not in itself any judgement on the issuer, but neither is it an indicator of economic substance or of local activity.
Managing director
Searches of independent public sources (LinkedIn, company registers, academic publications, code repositories and the specialist press) turned up no verifiable biographical or professional information on the name Agus Prabowo Saputra outside Bitcoin Hyper's own material. Independent verification of the identity and professional background of management is a standard part of issuer-level KYC; on the public sources available, it is not possible in this case.
Coincidence of names — a clarification
The name “Sentinum” is also used by other parties with no connection to Bitcoin Hyper. They are listed here to avoid confusion:
- Sentinum, Inc. — a Nevada company, a wholly owned subsidiary of Hyperscale Data, Inc. (NYSE American: GPUS), which operates a Bitcoin mining data centre in Dowagiac, Michigan. It has no commercial, contractual, technical or marketing relationship with Sentinum Ltd. or with Bitcoin Hyper.
- Sentinum GmbH — a German company working in LPWAN IoT sensors, based in Nürnberg/Fürth; acquired by the ifm group in May 2023. No connection with Bitcoin Hyper.
- Sentinum LLC — a United States entity registered by TMR Wine Company for beverages (USPTO registration no. 97171228, class 33 — wines). No connection with Bitcoin Hyper.
The author has checked the documentation behind the name coincidences listed above. There is no documented basis for any connection a reader might infer between Sentinum Ltd. (the entity named as the issuer of $HYPER) and these third parties.
Issuer transparency — the limits
On the public sources available, the following do not appear to be available: the company's annual financial statements; the identity of the ultimate beneficial owners; and public source-code repositories for the Layer 2 rollup, the SVM virtual machine brought to Bitcoin, the canonical bridge or the proof systems referred to in the public material. As at the date this page was updated, the published security audits cover the ERC-20 presale smart contract used for the fundraising, not the Layer 2 architecture described in the whitepaper.

2. Regulatory warnings
CNMV warning — 19 January 2026
Spain's Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores (CNMV), the authority competent for the supervision of financial markets under Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 (MiCA / the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation) published, on 19 January 2026, a warning listing the following parties connected with the project among the entities not authorised to provide crypto-asset services in Spain:
- Bitcoin Hyper
- Sentinum Ltd.
- Bitcoinhyper Ltd.
- the domains bitcoinhyper.com and bitcoinhyper.ltd
The warning is available on the CNMV's official website (www.cnmv.es), in the section devoted to unregistered entities (“entidades advertidas”).
What a warning under MiCAR does and does not mean
A warning of this kind establishes one concrete fact: the party concerned is not registered as a crypto-asset service provider (CASP) in the member state issuing the warning, and is not authorised to provide crypto-asset services in that jurisdiction. It is neither a finding of fraud nor a penalty: it is a precautionary warning addressed to retail clients. It is nonetheless an objective regulatory fact, and one an investor should take into account when forming a view, since the MiCA Regulation applies across all member states of the European Union and warnings issued by competent EU authorities are relevant under the principle of mutual recognition.
What this means in practice for an investor
Acquiring $HYPER during the presale should not be presented as a transaction to which the protections laid down for a duly licensed crypto-asset service provider automatically apply. The level of protection depends principally on the legal classification of the transaction, the service actually provided, the contracting entity and the applicable rules. In the event of a dispute — for instance if mainnet does not launch, if the issuer proves hard to identify or to contact, if the token becomes illiquid, or if there is an incident involving the canonical bridge — the competent jurisdiction and the legal remedies would have to be determined from the contractual documentation and the applicable rules, particularly in the fields of consumer protection and private international law.
